Dunno if there's a limit. In one game, we were running around with close to 800K in gold (I just can't stop picking up stuff!), and not much to spend it on. If there is a limit, my guess is somewhere in the millions.

Probably 1 gold short of a million, like in any other rpg games.

That's because the variable used to store gold stop at that. They could use a bigger variable, but they rarely do.

What other RPG games are these?

Also, if someone has been able to get to 1.4 million, then the limit is probably increadibly large. My guess would be ~430 million (4 bytes), but thats just an educated guess based on common programing techniques.

At the end of HoF I had over 2 Million. Maybe there isnt a cap to prevent "bug" where you "roll back" to the max. I remember BG2 had a huge problems with things going from lowest to max if you could force them below zero or opposite if you could get them over the max. I miss the good times... Anyone else use the Rod of Terror in BG2/ToB? I had a monk with perfect stats(ENDLESS REROLLS NOT CHEATS) except I had to sacrifice his Charisma to 3. But then I found the charisma ring and that boosted it to 18... I thought that was fine till I saw that a melee strike with the RoT would cause a PERMANENT loss of 1 Charisma 10% of the time... Soooooooo with the ring on I let it drop me 4 times then took the ring off and BAM! 18/00 18 18 18 18 26! Best non-cheat solo character ever. But also the filthiest exploit character ever. [img]smile.gif[/img] Beat the CRAP out of Bohdi though, actualy KILLED her on accident and crashed the game... Sorry... its a little of topic. "Memories..." [img]smile.gif[/img]

The most realistic gold limit is probably 16,777,216 or FF FF FF in hexidecimal.
